If you want to see the colours i own and use and how they look then head over to the Nail polish page and that’s where i’m adding them with samples of what they look and how many layers required for each one.

By the way, i LOVE Hello Kitty, : D So this is a good find for me as i didn’t know they existed.

Thinking about it, i think i know why everyone likes halloween. It’s a holiday and you have parties, but you don’t need to buy gifts!!! yay! That and you get to dress up and act like an idiot, my favorite things.

Excuse my ramblings if i go off, i have awesome toothache, i think it’s wisdom teeth… might be fillings…. but a massive fear of dentists will mean i never get this sorted, but the pain is crazy, so i’m trying to do anything i can not to think about it.

So first thing first! I have 2 main piece of news to share with you all, and one involves a give away!!! wooo

I really am a sucker for Halloween This happens to also be all of my dressing up for this Halloween As i have no Halloween shindig this year : ( yes feel sorry for me! And worse, even if i did, i don’t have enough money or time to make the costume i want this year : (

This ones a really simple one, just spider webs.

Colours i used for this are:

‘553’ by Maybeline, ‘White on white’ by Revlon, ‘Sassy Sparkles’ by LA Colour and Holographic Hero’ by Gosh.

With Halloween approaching here is my first set if nails for the season.

Say hello to beetlejuice! but don’t say it two more time….

So, last time i wrote a post was a while ago. These nails were meant to be put up a long time ago. And i thought i best put them up now instead.

These are the nails or a copy of the nails i wore when i went to the paralympics. I don’t wear fake nails myself, but my ones got ruined through the day and i though i should re-do them so i could take a better photo.

Sadly I won’t be able to post my scheduled post tomorrow as I’m with my family for my grandfathers funeral at the moment I’ll have it up on the 8th instead and the following one on schedule for the 9th and it’ll continue back on for every 3 days after that.

This one was suggested to me on my fan page on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/meandjdnailart After i did this one, i looked at it and i thought i might be able to do it slightly differently. So keep your eyes peeled for another one.

In those 6 months i’ve had someone visit this blog from almost every country. My maps nearly lit up completely!! And i’m overjoyed that so many people have visited. So i thought i’d share some silly facts about this blog with you!

Some suggested this on my fan page http://www.facebook.com/meandjdnailart and I tried it mostly just to see what it would look like. and my conclusion? Numbers are really hard to do small with paintbrush.

I’m meant to have a post going up tomorrow. But sadly i’ve not written it yet. This is because there’s been a death in my family. And I’m just not quite able to do everything. It was a long time coming and it’s better now as at least he’s not suffering, but it comes as little consolation to how much i miss him. I’ll try and have it posted by the 29th instead.

I was thinking about what else i could put in the geek series and i remembered, while at the wedding of my friend a few weeks back, towards the end of the night an amazing moment happened. The Pokemon theme came on, and what made this moment amazing? We all, in unison, without prompting, started singing along, every word, without missing any. It was a beautiful moment.

Anyway that’s what inspired me to do these nails.

‘I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was. To catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause. I will travel across the land, searching far and wide. Each Pokemon to understand, the power that’s inside. Pokemon, its you and me, I know it’s my destiny, Pokemon, oh, you’re my best friend, in a world we must defend, Pokemon, a heart so true, our courage will pull us through.’

Anyway……… The colours i used for this look are:

‘White on white’ by Revlon, ‘Blackout’ by Rimmel, and ‘Hot gossip’ by Rimmel.

Yet another part of the geeky series. And again it’s more science geek than anything else but here we go. It’s CERN nails!!!!! I couldn’t fit the whole hadron collider on one nail so that got left out but i did include visual representations of the particle.

The colours i used for this are: ‘White on white’ by Revlon, ‘Blackout’ by Rimmel, ‘320’ by Miss Sporty, ‘456’ by Miss Sporty, ‘Go go’ by 17, ‘Indigo’ by Barry M and ‘Sun downer’ by Rimmel

So here to kick off the geeky series is my first set. Breaking Bad! This was from a suggestion made on the me and jd nail art fan page on Facebook. (http://www.facebook.com/meandjdnailart ) if anyone has any more ideas please head on over and suggest them and become a fan!

The colours I used for this look are:

‘Blackout’ by Rimmel, ‘White on white’ by Revlon, ‘Grey Matter’ by Rimmel, ‘Sidewalkers’ by NYC, ‘Bleu Asphalte’ by Borjour, ‘Sweet as Sugar’ by Rimmel, ‘320’ by Miss Sporty, ”456′ by Miss Sporty and ‘ Cyan Blue’ by Barry M.

Just keep reading and visiting and i’ll put up a notice and links of course when i do get that all sorted. For now i’m having computer troubles which makes it hard to do the tutorials. But soon…

When i submit a post it does get set to twitter, tumblr and facebook so lots of places so see each one!I hope everything so far has been what you’ve wanted to learn and read.

If you have any suggestions or idea feel free to comment them and if i can i’ll give them a go.

So one of my oldest friends got married on the 28th July, and i did her nails for her!

The wedding was awesome and ever so odd which suited the couple perfectly, and i have a great time. I only wish i’d taken more photo with the bride, alas i did not.

But these are the nails she was meant to have. Sadly we finished the the night before and during the night they smudged during the night : ( and we didn’t have enough left to do both hands again so a not as fun set of nails were done instead. But this is what they were meant to look like.

Products used:

Marvel temporary tattoos, ‘White on white’ by Revlon, ‘Hot Gossip’ by Rimmel and ‘Heartbeat’ by 17

I actually spent quite a long time trying to figure out how to do these nails, i didn’t want to risk losing the colour pigment in the nail polish when attempting to water them down an the next question was how to water them down without destroying them. Well, i figured it all out and it was way simpler than i though it would be.

The colours i used for this look are:

‘White on white’ by Revlon, ‘Bright Orange’ by MaxFactor, ‘Juicy’ by 17, ‘Shade 50’ by 2true, ‘Shade 48’ by 2true and ‘Strawberry Fizz’ by Rimmel.
